** Summary changed:

- compiz/kwin freezes on login as of xorg-server 1.5.99.902-0ubuntu2
+ GDM/KDM freezes on login as of xorg-server 1.5.99.902-0ubuntu2

** Description changed:

  After upgrading to xserver-xorg-core 1.5.99.902-0ubuntu2, compiz freezes
  on login with the CPU spinning (70% Xorg, 30% compiz).  The same happens
  with 1.5.99.902-0ubuntu3, but the problem goes away after downgrading to
  1.5.99.902-0ubuntu1.
  
  I’m running Jaunty amd64 with the nvidia 180 drivers.
  
  WORKAROUND:
  Use xserver-xorg-core 1.5.99.902-0ubuntu1
  -OR-
  1. Start your session
  2. Go to terminal (ctrl+alt+F1) and kill compiz.real via killall compiz.real 
-s KILL
  3. go back to your session (ctrl+alt+F7)
  4. remove /dev/nvidiactl (this will be regenerated next time you restart GDM)
  5. start compiz
+ -OR-
+ At boot, on GRUB, choose recovery-console, and run XFIX
